Overview

Sleep apnea may be commonly caused by a large neck/abodminal circumference (e.g. obese individuals), administration of medications, diseases that narrow the respiratory airways (e.g. enlarged adenoids, enlarged tonsils), diseases that affect the central nervous system (e.g. cerebrovascular accident, spinal cord injury), or infectious diseases (e.g. polio).

 ==Overview==
-Sleep apnea may present as a result of conditions which cause narrowing or complete closure of the respiratory airways (e.g. [[enlarged adenoids]], [[Palatine tonsil#Tonsillar hypertrophy|enlarged tonsils]]) or conditions which affect the [[central nervous system]] thus preventing the [[brain]] from sending the right signal to the muscles that control respiration (e.g. [[cerebrovascular accident]], [[spinal cord injury]]).
